PREFACE.

This pamphlet contains " The Eecords of the Church
of Christ in Buxton " during the pastorate of the Rev.
Paul Cofiin, D.D. ; that is, from the first formation of
the church, March 16, 1763, until the ordination of his
colleague, Rev. Levi Loring, Oct. 22, 1817. Prior to
and including that date, the records are all in the
handwriting of Dr. Coffin ; but, during the remainder of
his life, they are almost entirely in the handwriting
of his colleague, and are not included herein. Every
thing in his handwriting is included, and nothing else,
unless so noted. ' .

While these records are in manuscript only, there is
constant danger of their destruction. As a grandson of
Dr. Coffin, and a native of Buxton, I wish to see the
facts preserved which are so recorded, and therefore
cause this pamphlet to be printed.

Many of the old families will here find some facts
that will interest them ; and the future historian of the
town will not fail to appreciate their value.

PREFACE.

I do not undertake to add annotations. That Avould
lead me into too wide a field, and one which I am not
inclined, for the present at least, to enter. By putting
the facts here recorded into a more accessible shape
than they now are, I hope that they will become better
known to the inhabitants of the town, and tend to pro-
mote among them a better knowledge of, and more
interest in, family history, than now exists.

A Memoir and the Journals of Dr. Coffin were printed
in the fourth volume of the Collections of the Maine
Historical Society, which makes it unnecessary to speak
fully of him here.

CHURCH COVENANT.

TT TE, whose Names are hereunto Subscribed, apprehending
' " ourselves called of God into the Church State of the
Gospel, do first of all declare ourselves unworthy to be so highly
favoured of the Lord, and admire that free and rich Grace of
his, which triumphs over so great Unworthiness ; And then, with
an humble Reliance on the Aids of Grace therein promised to

them who, in an humble sense of their Inability to do any good
Thing, do wait on him for all their Sufficiency, do thankfully
lay hold on his Covenant, and would chuse the Things that
please him.

We declare our Belief of the Christian Eeligion, as contained
in the Sacred Scriptures ; heartily resolving to conform our
Lives to the Rules of the same, as long as we live in the
World.

fVe give up ourselves to the Lord Jehovah, who is the Father
the Son, and the holy Ghost ; & avouch him this Day to be our
God ; our Father, our Saviour, and Leader, and receive him as
our Portion forever.

We give up ourselves to the blessed Jesus, who is the Lord
Jehovah, And adhere to. him as the Head of his People in the
Covenant of Grace and rely on him, as our Prophet, Priest &
King, to bring us unto eternal Blessedness.

We acknowledge our everlasting and indispensable Obligations
to glorify our God in all the Duties of a Sober, righteous and
godly Life ; and particularly in all the Duties of a Church-State,
as we are a Body of People associated for an obedience to him
in all the ordinances of the gospel ; And we thereupon depend
on his gracious Assistances for our faithful Discharge of the
Duties, thus incumbent on us.

We desire, and intend, &, with Dependance on his promised
and powerful Grace, we engage, to walk together as a Church
of the Lord Jesus Christ, in the Faith and order of the Gospel,
according to our Knowledge of the same, conscienciously attend-
ing the public worship of God, the Sacraments of his new
Testament, the Discipline of his Kingdom, & all his holy Insti-
tutions, in Communion with one another, and watchfully avoiding
Sinful Stumbling Blocks 'and Contentions, as becomes a People
whom the Lord has bound up in a Bundle of Life.

At the same Time, we do also present our Offspring with us
unto the Lord, purposing, with his Help, to do our part in the
Methods of a religious Education, That they may be the Lord's.
And all this we do, flying to the Blood of the everlasting

Covenant for the Pardon of our many Errors ; and praying that
the glorious Lord, who is the great Shepherd, would prepare
and strengthen us for every good work, to do his will, working
in us that which will be well pleasing to him ; To whom be
glory forever and ever. Amen.

Prayer by the Rev. Moderator

Received the following answer from Mr Levi Loring, viz.

To the congregational Church and Parish in Buxton.

Brethren & Friends.

The Invitation to accept the office of Colleague Pastor,
in the work of the gospel ministry, with your present ven-
erable and beloved Pastor which has been communicated to
me, through your respective committees demanded, and has
received, my most Solemn Consideration. It is a Question that
involves my own Peace the Comfort and Happiness of my
Family, the Happiness of a Church of Christ, and the eternal
Happiness of the Individuals composing your Society.

It is a Subject connected with the Interest of the Redeemer's
Kingdom, the eternal Salvation of immortal Soul^, and the
Glory of God. In a matter of such infinite Importance, who
is competent to decide ? None, I am sensible, but that Being

CHURCH OP CHRIST IN BUXTON. 83

■who is infinite in wisdom, and who seeth the end from the
Beginning. To him therefore I have endeavored to refer the
Suhject, beseeching him to guide and direct me to such a Deci-
sion as shall be for the Advancement of the Kingdom of Christ,
and the Glory of God. When I consecrated myself to the
work of the ministry, I humbly hope I gave myself unreservedly
to the Service of Christ ; to labor in any Part of his Vineyard,
where he should place me, my only Anxiety therefore in this
Business has been to ascertain the mind of Christ. That una-
nimity with which you have proceeded, and other events of
divine Providence connected with my Introduction and continu-
ance among you, have led me to believe that it is my Duty to
accept your Invitation, by answering your Eequest in the affirm-
ative. I have not come to this Determination without many
severe Trials of mind. . I feel myself altogether insufficient to
perform those great and momentous Duties, which will devolve
upon me. I enter upon the arduous work with Trembling.
May I have Grace to depend on the Great Head of the Church,
for Wisdom and Strength ; To look to him, who has said, " Lo,
I am with you always." May the Connexion contemplated, if
formed, promote the Peace and Prosperity of your Church and
Parish, and increase the Happiness of your aged Pastor, but
above all, may Almighty God give me Grace to preach the
Gospel faithfully : And may he accompany the Dispensation of
his Word among you with the effectual Influences of the Holy
Spirit ; that I may save my own Soul and the Souls of them
who hear me. I am your servant in Christ,

Levi Loring.
